Off duty lifeguard Djebbe Hiscock,17, was at Dappat se Gat, a notoriously dangerous beach near Gordon's Bay, when he saw a young man being pulled out to sea in a rip current. Using a Sea Rescue Pink Rescue Buoy he saved the young mans life. Unfortunately a number of the Pink Rescue Buoys have been stolen. Djebbe and the man who he rescued, Jeniel, make a passionate appeal for people not to steal the Pink Buoys.A stolen Pink Buoy is a stolen life.If you would like to sponsor a Pink Rescue Buoy, click here#PutThemBack #PinkBuoys
